Beautifull stuff, three of the many tracks that show how
far electronic music went in terms of quality in the
90's...

They explore similar field in the best possible way ...
still what of these three tracks you rate most ... ?

PNG
Xtal
Halcyon

All three are great, but PNG changed everything.

Papua New Guinea
Halcyon
Xtal

(Yes, I can still hear versions and variations of that track
wherever I go. It has quite the momentum to last this far.)

Does 808 State - Pacific State count?

i was like 7 years old when papua new guinea was released,
but ive been thinking of getting this since i saw the vinil
on a record shop when i was beggining to discover afx and
electronic music. but never did. maybe its the moment to get
a classic, and id like it on black plastic, but there are
hundred of editions with different mixes...
any recommendation of what edition to get, what are the best
mixes or something?

Yeah i was thinking to mention We Are The Music Makers
too...

Xtal however is only one step further in terms of
perfection, in my opinion of course.

These three are tracks that would possibly change anyone's
mind about electronic music... and each was a huge step
fowrard that few made after that. It's classic, beautifull
electronic music in its pure form... any mention that sums
this particular area - old or new - is welcome...

You must choose one of these before that though. ;)

only one with this mix inside... also the most expensive

I will say that Heliosphan is more important than Xtal
though.

i didn't know Halcyon, thanks for the tip, it's a nice track
- i don't know charts but PNG and Xtal are for sure - more
PNG than Xtal perhaps - yeah Tha - that's a better Aphex
representative - on here too
